Decent greasy spoons type breakfast place. Overall, great experience but while there server did not refill coffee but when I asked for a to go cup, was granted the request. Popular place in AM so may have to wait depending on the day.

Food was Average, the server was decent. Cute joint. Coffee was super basic. They had limited servers so it took a long time for serving.

Overall, expect college student level service (ie, not great), college level noise and decent food. For how packed this place was, I was expecting amazing food. I think they do so well due to the proximity to MSU but I definitely think there are way better places in town if you have a car or arent desperate.
Food – ordered bacon breakfast sandwich, it was decently good. Menu is meat centric. Not much for vegetarians.
Atmosphere – so noisy, they could probably make this better with some noise dampening panels and it wouldn’t cost that much.

The food is always great but what always has me coming back is the latte that a server named Tate makes. That girl makes a MEANNN latte, I ask for a coconut latte with oat milk every single time I go and I am never disappointed. It’s perfect in every way every time!!!

I eat here often and always enjoy it. Great omelets (the Irish one is awesome), tasty pancakes. Really good French Toast.
The service is stellar. Very friendly staff.
And reasonable prices.
What more could you want?

Just a mediocre experience. I had the Brekky bowl. Ok at best. The bowl came with chunks of potatoes, the larger ones slightly undercooked. I prefer crispy potatoes or hash browns (they appear to only offer pre-made hash brown patty). It had a bland sausage gravy but also was floating in a greasy butter. I graded slightly on the higher end. No reason to go back.

Worst grilled cheese I’ve ever gotten. Food showed up ice cold and late. $9 for barely 1 slice of cheese with unbuttered bread!!

The place is a small but big enough to hold large groups if needed. The place reminds me of an old school diner. The service was friendly and seems family run and oriented. It’s a very comfortable place to eat.

I had the Arroyo Burrito and it was very good. I also added hash brown (+$2) to the meal. The burrito was large and pretty filling. It was tasty and with plenty of flavor. I added some sausage gravy, which made it pop for me. It did cost me $3 extra for the gravy, which seemed a bit high for the small but adequate amount of gravy. Additionally, the hash brown was not what I expected for a home style restaurant.

The other photo is of the Turkey Bacon Cheddar. Which I can’t really comment besides it was said to be good.

We tried this place this morning after hearing some decent things about it. I got the cinnamon roll pancakes which were absolutely amazing. Another reviewer said that they were too sweet, but I did not find this to be the case at all. I thought they were very well balanced for a sweet dish. My daughter got the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was good, but her biscuit was incredibly dry. My wife got the Swuare One crossiant sandwich which was good, but not necessarily amazing. Overall we were pretty pleased, but the prices seemed quite high for the quality of food and atmosphere. There are cheaper options in the greater Lansing area with better food in my opinion. If we were nearby, we would probably stop in again but would not go out of our way to eat here… at least for their current prices..

TL;DR: the facility might look nice and have a whole slew of reviews, but I absolutely (and can’t stress enough) inspect your food before you eat. You shouldn’t have to at most places where you trust the chef and staff for a good meal, but this, to me, is most certainly not one of such places.

Being fully honest, I’m disappointed on actually doing this review. I was genuinely excited to dine in and see what so many people before talked about, but in the end, I left insulted and disgusted.

The Atmosphere: It’s just this small place at an outlet mall nearby some train tracks; they don’t got much room to work with, but they did a pretty good job with it on the layout, and their decorative catering to the local area was adequate, if not expected. Functionally, well done; decoration is fair and well maintained. It was kept clean too!

The Service: to be honest, we felt wholly a burden being there than welcomed clientele. Even though they had three staff around the small cafe, it took several minutes before we were given menus — it took me giving direct eye contact and a wave before we got our menus. Ordered waters and that was given swiftly enough, but after we placed in our order for a breakfast sandwich, a cinnamon roll, and a plate of toast and eggs; we sat. And we sat; and sat; and sat for over FORTY MINUTES. After our disappointment of their product, we wanted to leave. The waitress did not question us about our meal which was clearly not enjoyed; no refund was given as we left in disgust.

The Food: I was hurt the most here. I do not mind waiting as long as I did if the product itself would have gone beyond my expectations; I would even find it as validation if it had been wonderful, yet the opposite could not have been more true. I ordered The Karl, a sandwich that came with sausage, egg, cheese, onions, and peppers with your choice to be made upon toast, an English muffin, a biscuit, and a croissant (though, I withheld the egg out of personal preference and ordered it upon a biscuit). I’m afraid I was never able to actually swallow any of it as to my abject horror I found the sausage patty raw in the middle and pink. It was genuinely a safety of health concern and what I deem inedible. My mother ordered toast, eggs, house fries, and sausage, however. After seeing how my sausage was raw, she dared not touch her own and found the house fries dreadfully dry and undercooked. Toast and eggs were alright, but you’d be a whole other level to mess that up. The over hyped cinnamon rolls were also disappointing. The roll itself was dry and a day old, but to mask it, they straight up down poured two cups of icing on the small cinnamon roll, literally masking it under a thick layer of liquid powdered sugar — wasn’t even buttery at the slightest.

We’re not going back.

Took us over forty-five minutes of our lives and twenty-one dollars only to walk out with empty bellies, disappointment, disgust, and feeling blatantly insulted with the fear of contracting worms from raw pork or some other horrific NTD. I will not recommend this place in the future.
